2014 CAMA Annual Report ANNUAL REPORT 2014 CENTRE FOR APPLIED MACROECONOMIC ANALYSIS Crawford School of Public Policy ANU College of Asia & the Pacific Message from the Director 2014 was another outstanding year for CAMA. Professor Reneé Fry-McKibbin who became CAMA Director in 2012, moved to a more senior role at ANU. I returned as Director in November 2014 to continue the important plans put in place during Reneé’s leadership. All participants in CAMA owe a great debt to the time and effort that Reneé contributed to CAMA. Reneé will continue as a member of the Management Committee and the co-director of two CAMA programs. CAMA relies on leadership and contributions at many levels. In particular, the Management Committee of Ippei Fujiwara, Creina Day and Timo Henckel supported by the CAMA Administrator, Rossana Bastos Pinto and each of the Program Directors have done a great job in maintaining the goals of CAMA throughout 2014. During 2014, 78 working papers were published. CAMA Research Associates published outstanding papers in the world’s leading economics and finance journals. A total of 88 papers were published in peer reviewed journals in 2014. CAMA Research Associates also actively participated in conference and workshops around the world and had important impact on major policy debates in many countries. CAMA was involved in 22 conferences, workshops and seminars in 2014. The number of CAMA Research Associates rose from 148 in 2013 to 164 in 2014. CAMA is a network of scholars. The success of CAMA draws directly on the active participation of researchers around the world who believe in excellence in research and public policy and contributing to public goods. I would like to thank everyone in CAMA for their contributions and their support.

for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis – an overview The Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis (CAMA) is located in Crawford School of Public Policy at The Australian National University. It was established in 2003 to bring together economists working on applied macroeconomic and financial market issues throughout Australia and across the globe. CAMA’s objectives are to advance research and post-graduate training in applied macroeconomic and financial issues. CAMA was founded by Professor Warwick McKibbin who is also the current director. The deputy director is Professor Ippei Fujiwara. Former directors include Professor Renée Fry- McKibbin and Professor Shaun Vahey and deputy directors include Professor Heather Anderson, Professor Mardi Dungey and Professor Renée Fry-McKibbin. The Australian National University | 1 Annual Report 2014: Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis Research programs The research activities of the centre are built around a series of research programs headed by a program director (or directors). The program director is responsible for organising research in the area of the program. Proposals for new programs are welcome and will be considered by the Executive Committee. Proposals should be directed to the CAMA director. It is envisaged that programs will be active for two years after which they are reviewed. Behavioural Macroeconomics and Complexity Behavioural Macroeconomics seeks to refine our understanding of th e discipline by accounting for relevant features of human behaviour that are absent in the standard economics framework. Instead of assuming a hyper-rational representative agent, the basis for analysis are empirically well-documented psychological and sociological factors such as cognitive bias, fairness concerns, herding, and social status. Acknowledging the growing econometric and experimental evidence that human behaviour often fails the predictions of the rational expectations, full-information paradigm, this research program provides an umbrella for all research dedicated to melding the insights from behavioural economics and psychology with modern macroeconomics in a sound and rigorous way. An integral part of this research agenda is the problem of aggregation and the presence of agent heterogeneity, which considers the economy as an adaptive nonlinear network that generates complex, emergent behaviour. Salient features of this approach include dispersed interaction of agents, multiple levels of organisation and interaction, bounded rationality, continual adaptation of agents’ behaviours, actions and strategies, deep, unquantifiable uncertainty and persistent out-of- equilibrium dynamics. The emphasis is both on theoretical and empirical models: • Theoretical behavioural models will analyse

  • Three Essays on the Economics of Household Decision Making
    Three Essays on the Economics of Household Decision Making DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Vipul Bhatt, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Economics The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Pok-sang Lam, Adviser Masao Ogaki, Co-adviser David Blau Paul Evans c Copyright by Vipul Bhatt 2010 Abstract My research emphasizes the role of interrelated preferences in determining economic choices within a household. In this regard, I study both intergenerational interactions (between parents and children) and intragenerational interactions (between spouses). These linkages have important implications on individual economic behavior such as savings, labor supply, investment in human capital, and bequests which in turn affects aggregate savings and growth. Standard altruism models developed by Barro and Becker are based on an important assumption that parents and children have homogeneous discount factors, which precludes any role parents can play in influencing their child’s time preferences. However, there is empirical evidence that parents attempt to shape their children’s attitudes. The first essay of my dissertation, “Tough Love and Intergenerational Altru- ism” (based on this I also have a joint work with Masao Ogaki), proposes a framework to study the role of parents in shaping children’s time preferences. The tough love altruism model modifies the standard altruism model in two ways. First, the child’s discount factor is endogenously determined so that low consumption at young ages leads to a higher discount factor later in her life. Second, the parent evaluates the child’s lifetime utility with a constant high discount factor.

  • A Reformulation of Normative Economics for Models with Endogenous
    A Reformulation of Normative Economics for Models with Endogenous Preferences ∗ Vipul Bhatt1 Masao Ogaki2 Yuichi Yaguchi3 James Madison University Keio University Chuo University Abstract This paper proposes a framework to balance considerations of welfarism and virtue ethics in the normative analysis of economic models with endogenous preferences. We introduce the moral evaluation function (MEF), which ranks alternatives based purely on virtue ethics, and define the social objective function (SOF), which combines the Social Welfare Function (SWF) and the MEF. In a model of intergenerational altruism with endogenous time preference, using numerical simulations we show that maximizing the SWF may not yield a socially desirable state if the society values virtue. This problem can be resolved by using the SOF to evaluate alternative social states. ∗This paper was prepared in part while Ogaki was a visiting scholar of Institute for Monetary and Economic Studies at the Bank of Japan. We would like to extend our special thanks to Noah Smith for introducing us to Pollak's (1978) work and to the concept of meta-preferences, as well as for many comments and discussions about many aspects of this paper, and to Toyotaka Sakai for his suggestions about the for- mulation of the social objective function. We would also like to thank Takanori Ida, Mamoru Kaneko, Fumio Ohtake,Julio Rotemberg, Makoto Saito, and seminar and session participants at the Bank of Japan, the City University of Hong Kong, the 2012 Association of Behavioral Economics and Finance Meeting, the 2013 Japanese Economic Association Meeting, the Canon Institute for Global Studies Conference on Macroeco- nomic Theory and Policy 2014, and the 2014 Society for Advancement of Economic Theory Conference for comments.

  • The Yen and Japan's Economy, 1985–2007
    CENTER ON JAPANESE ECONOMY AND BUSINESS Working Paper Series February 2009, No. 269 The Yen and Japan’s Economy, 1985–2007 Maurice Obstfeld This paper is available online at www.gsb.columbia.edu/cjeb/research/ac COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK The Yen and Japan’s Economy, 1985-2007* Maurice Obstfeld University of California, Berkeley November 2008 Preliminary Draft—Comments Welcome *Prepared for the ESRI/Chicago GSB/Columbia Business School Conference on “Japan’s Bubble, Deflation, and Long-Term Stagnation,” Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, December 11-12, 2008. I thank Thomas Becker and Gabriel Chodorow-Reich for excellent research assistance. The paper has benefited from the helpful suggestions of Kyoji Fukao, Linda Goldberg, Koichi Hamada, Anil Kashyap, Masao Ogaki, David Weinstein, and conference participants at the March 2008 Columbia University pre- workshop. Introduction In the late 1980s, Japan’s economy embarked on a period of rapid escalation in the prices of shares and real estate. This “bubble economy” was followed by a collapse in asset prices, a reduced pace of real economic growth, banking problems, and deflation. Nearly two decades after the demise of the bubble economy, the prognosis for Japanese growth remains uncertain amid a turbulent global economic outlook. Japan’s experience carries lessons for those hoping to understand and contain the current financial crisis originating in the United States housing market. Some observers of Japan blame its monetary policy for failing to react promptly and aggressively enough, both as asset prices rose in the late 1980s and as they plummeted afterward. In these accounts, official concerns about the yen’s foreign exchange rate and the competitiveness of the export sector were significant considerations for monetary policy.

MA 02167, USA IGIER. 20090 Oprra (MI), Ita!,, Received June 1991, final version May 1993 This paper examines the properties of nominal profits from speculation in dollar-dominated forward contracts using a representative agent cash-in-advance model, modified to allow for hetero- scedasticity in the exogenous processes. The model is simulated by estimating exogenous processes from the data and the remaining free parameters with a simulated method-of-moments technique. Simulated expected profits are variable, heteroskedastic, and serially correlated, but the magnitude of these second moments fall short of those of the predictable component of observed profits on the U.S. dollar. As in the actual data simulated forward rates display biasedness in predicting simulated future spot rates.
